55nm would have shrinked the chip to about the size of G80.
NVidia never start their high-end on a new process. ATi have been a process ahead for awhile because of a gamble they took with the R520 that costed them drastically in both market share as well as stock value, and is arguably the reason ATi was able to be bought out by AMD.

So when you think about it, having a high-end part be your first test run of a new process size is incompetence. Personally, I'd rather have a larger chip than one with half the yields. Call me crazy, but I'd like to actually be able to buy this thing rather than it be nowhere to be found and price gouged up in the $800+ range(remember the 7800GTX 512MB?).
